Lightning talks?
|
| |
We are considering making a chunk of the lunch break available for lightning talks - probably five or six up-to-5-minute presentations from anyone who has something they are passionate about and want to share. Since time is limited, we'd have to allocate slots of a first-come first-serve basis, probably with slides given in advance (the submission window being some interval in the early part of the day itself). Timing would also have to be quite strictly enforced to help things run smoothly.... more »

Friday night pub?
|
| |
Hi all, Is there interest in meeting up pre-conference on the Friday night (28th October) for some drinks? We could call this the "pre-conference party" if you like, but let's keep it informal. Anyway, let me know if you're interested in that, and I'll gauge numbers to find a pub that can support us.... more »

Arse-sitting, bullshit and distraction
|
| |
Final thoughts on whether the 29th should have a session devoted to

should be such a session, given the good people that can make it to
Ruby Manor. Indeed I feel it would be a considerable waste not to.... more »

Birds-of-a-feather lunches
|
| |
At a recent, large W3C conference, one of the things I enjoyed was the "birds of a feather" lunches. Delegates could propose a topic during the breaktime on a whiteboard board, and then other attendees could sign up (the number was limited by the size of the lunch tables). Then we all had lunch together and talked about the topic - or in my case had a rambling 30 minute... more »

Questions?
|
| |
Hello! I was chatting to a few people last night about the topic of conference questions to speakers, and how we'd like to handle that at the manor. A few things that people dislike about the "traditional" 10-minutes-for-questions format mentioned to me last night were: i) It takes up speakers time, which might be better used for a longer... more »

Problems with paypal/vestibule contributor tickets
|
| |
Hi,
Anyone else experiencing problems trying to buy a vestibule-
contributor ticket via paypal, or is it just me? It bombs out for me
on the review order page (after you've entered your details).
